I’m writing this during my lunch break of a particularly wearing workday. I started getting really frustrated with basically everything and my day was quickly taking a nosedive until I took this break and decided to focus on writing this little blog post.

I’m in the process of writing my first (and perhaps last) book! I am about 40% of the way through and it is proving to be a cathartic and creatively challenging experience. I am hoping to have a working draft by the end of August. In addition, I am embarking on a Whole 30 eating program this month. Though I have lost 17 pounds in … Continue reading Currently Reading.

I’ve been changing my thinking habits. Changing may be a strong word. Enhancing? I’ve been listening to The Lively Show on my way to work. This podcast is upbeat and provides insight on how to live your life with intention. (Read: Spend less time on social media). In an effort to manifest all I’ve learned, this weekend was a trial run. I listened to my … Continue reading Listen, Watch, Read #8 – The Summer Edition
